Updating language strings fails on OS X localhost
Hi.
I’m preparing a localhost install of Textpattern 4.5.4 for a site rebuild/refresh, and I’ve spotted what might be a minor glitch.
Immediately after install and login, I am taken to the Admin panel, Admin, Preferences, Language. I have the option to update the British English language strings file which is currently saying it was last updated 08 Apr 2013 17:36:46. I click update, and a visual confirmation appears telling me: ‘English (Great Britain) Updated’. So far, this is what I expect to see.
If I do this on a web host, it plays nice and I would expect the ‘Update’ reference to change to ‘Updated’; on my OS X localhost, the date remains the same and ‘Update’ doesn’t change. It’s like there’s a file permission amiss somewhere – what should I check in my file system to make sure the language update option works?
There’s nothing in my Apache logs that’s telling a file read/write failed. The visual confirmation of an updated language file is somewhat misleading if the update hasn’t actually taken place.
Happy to make a screencast to demonstrate if the above isn’t clear. My diagnostics are below:
